I think I took inspiration from you, actually when I went to the Hobby Lobby and got a small craft shackle that works really well for my keys after I ground off the end of the pin protruding out. It's basically just a small version of a rigging shackle.

Agreed on the TPT Slide. I've had one in my pocket every day for probably 2 years. I use it all the time both at work and at home. I pretty much never use a pocket knife (even though I always have one on me) because I usually just need to open something or breakdown something and with the razer blade, you don't care if you screw it up. I love the TOPO version! Would like to have that one too.

The reylight pineapple mini can go as low as 38 bucks for the brass model and the titanium models can be had for around 50 bucks directly on the reylight website, so actually not as expensive as you said and quite attainable pricewise. Also I think you had the switch types backwards.

The EDC world has gotten totally insane.

LMAO. Like I said, not a hater. Buy what you want for whatever price. BUT this is getting ridiculous. I have a trucker and a construction buddy that have been serious about EDC for over ten years. Their carryouts top out at 300'ish total. Love the channel dude. It's very entertaining.

I think people find some of it necessary and some not. I for example have no use for a flashlight, not often a pen, and I definitely don’t need a fixed blade, so for me it’s just a small pocketknife, a wallet, and my minimal keychain. So because it’s really only two things, I can afford to get a nice wallet and a nice knife. I can see how it would because a little ridiculous if you’re carrying around $2k in 7 different pocket accessories
